Radiocommunication Sector (ITU-R)

The Radiocommunication Sector (ITU-R) is a part of the International Telecommunication Union that develops global standards and regulations for radio communications. It manages how wireless signals—such as radio, television, mobile phones, satellite communications, and navigation systems—share the electromagnetic spectrum to prevent interference and ensure reliable connectivity worldwide. ITU-R brings together governments and organizations to coordinate the use of radio frequencies and orbital slots, facilitating efficient and harmonious wireless communication across different countries and technologies. Its work supports the seamless, safe, and optimal operation of radio-based services everywhere.
